The HB trough ones i have seen used in South Tx work really well once the deer get used to it. They never leave enough in the tray for moisture to be an issue and any that does get rained on the coons will usually clean it up free of charge.

Thanks guys trough is an option but this is the all seasons I’m talking about. During off season I will also have a free choice feeder going in the same spot but this is just so I can keep it going through the season. In the off season this would give me 4k lbs of feed per spot to cut refill trips. My free choice also converts to corn so I could have 1 ton of corn and 1 ton of protein capacity during the season.

I have a 1000# crossfire - I also have 6 of the above free choice feeders that are awesome. Never had a problem. I picked up the trough feeder to put in my blackbuck/oryx pasture so that they wouldnt be able to clean it out in a matter of days. It gives them a little twice a day and lasts a good while.

Timed Protein
We ended up deciding to get (2) timed 3000lb feeders. Each feeder has two hoppers hooked up with an eliminator plate to control how much feed is thrown-- 2250lb capacity for protein and 750lb capacity for corn. That's a gray 50gallon drum on the front of the trailer for reference. They are Outback Wildlife Feeders.

You spent some $$$ on those Outbacks. Very nice feeders.
